Wash away the hidden stains
Of my falleness I pray
I'll tell the world
Of all You've done
Of Your saving power in me


Saturate me now
Ever leave me in Your grace

ah today marks the day i got brazilian waxed!! sheesh i feel so backstabbed man.

the initial plan was to pin yonghui down while they waxed his legs. then as the guys were pinning him down, the girls went to paste those patches on the other guys too!

AND IT HURTS SO BADLY WHEN THEY RIP IT OFF!!!

and thanks to charlene i have now one big patch of hairless skin on my left leg. eh seriously, i think its super effective as in, even my hand has more hair then that patch on my leg now.

and there's this 3 other patches which i remove it before the gum could stick, and now its like i have these 3 super sticky rectangles of gum like substance, two on my right leg, one on my left. its like unremovable by soap and stuff, and it sticks to your pants!

haha but its real fun lah. my class is fun. and we found our resident flasher, Mr Hooper today in the bathroom. lol long story.

okay i planned to study in school today till like 5pm but apparently, i was super sleepy after PE. and like slept through the entire 1hr of chem tutorial lah.

okay i think its really about time i recovered from the flu.


In Christ alone
I place my trust
And find my glory in the power of the cross
In every victory
Let it be said of me
My source of strength
My source of hope
Is Christ alone

yes Lord, i mean it!

today is day filled with so much ups and downs. had soccer mcg yesterday in the rain, which wasnt the wisest thing to do since i had to perform today. but then again u cant just cancel a mcg or pon it! i mean so many pre-believers would be there anyway. yup okay so after playing soccer in the rain for like a few hours, it kinda made my blocked nose, even more block. like making the flu worse. but didnt regret it one bit. had like valuable time to spend with many of the peeps. and thank God for alvin who went down to the drain to retrieve the ball, long story lah.

and the medicine i've been taking arent seem to be working.. even the antibiotics..

okay so last night i was praying for like today's service to be a success and stuff. and like for everyone performing today to be like in good health and stuff. no guitar string break or wadeva. then was praying for God to like clear my nose before service starts. then i thought like why not just ask God to settle it when i wake up in the morning!! and i was like telling Him i promised to share His miraculous healing if He would heal me by morning.. haha! okay so i woke up at 2am, still flu, 4am, partial flu, then when i woke up at 7.15am.. i can breath with my nose again!!! wah felt awesome. haha yes and i kept my promise, reached nexus at 8.30am and then shared with kaiwen and weilun about how i was healed.

okay yup basically we performed Five Colours in Her Hair by McFly. sound check was fun, but everyone was like still rather tired and stuff having wake up so early.

and like 5 mins before first service kaiwen pointed out to me this CRACK on my sexy white flying v. wah i tell u i felt like dying. its a CRACK not a scratch. and the only way to replace it is, change the whole body, which means, buy a new guitar. it was like! $400+ gone!!

but things seemed to have headed in a downward direction during first service, like the sound going off and stuff. before we went up they told us we didnt have the interview clip, so we had to like get our cables connected and start like almost immediately to reduce the awkwardness. then it was our turn!

haha and halfway through the performance i wondered why matthias came to use my mic instead of just standing at his own position and use his, like he trying to do some showmanship stun issit. then his guitar cable was like being stretched ard his own mic stand it almost fell lah! then okay when the bridge came, i realised that something was quite wrong. the song sound way too empty. and when i slide the high G to the low G suddenly my guitar went off too.. and the horror unfolded. i literally slide the note to nothingness.. the sound went off on my guitar too. i was like wacking power chords and notes and felt so, weird. then i realised why matthias came to sing into my mic, and why the song sounded so empty.. everyone was liked muted. weilun's bass was muted halfway through. THEN, that matthias can laugh. wah gosh lol i was so freaked out and he could laugh! apparently he knew that his stuff had no sound and maybe mine was coming.

okay then in that moment, i saw katarina running up the stage to give matthias flowers.. i was like !!!??? haha joke joke! apparently God used her 'negligence', if i may, to like buy us more time. she thought the song ended lah. then ian came up on stage and tried to solve the problem. but it wasnt the wire problem, so cant be helped. i think that whole 10 seconds seemed so planned.. then weilun started freaking out when he stared at me and told me his bass had no sound. a sense of nostalgia from metamorphosis kicked in. i stared blankly at him and told him to pretend while i played the guitar solo. then THANK GOD my guitar came back on and we continued to finish the song. with one mic, one guitar, and the drums.

okay lah basically i was quite nerve wrecking. cause i couldnt hear matt's guitar, which was supposed to be playing full chords, i was like lingering ard trying to find the key, and i like kinda made myself sound like i was pushing out the sound so it kinda blends in in being off tune, if u get what i mean.

BUT u know what. seriously i thought that the whole thing was very divine. despite everything the service atmosphere wasnt affected that badly and there were many converts. and like how kat had to give the flowers at the wrong time, to draw attention away and buy time. and how my guitar had to go off just at the moment when i slide the note. u know any other moment my guitar were to go off. i just be stunned. its like just drums and me singing. i wont know how to continue lah. and all that made it seem like the screw up was planned. haha. esp when matt laughed. oh well.

okay second service was much better. when i plugged in the guitar cable at the start, and just like turned up the volume on the guitar to see if there was sound. just touch the strings alr so loud!! haha awesome. i think the sound mixing was very well done, sounded alot like the track itself. loud and impactful. and we were stress free. i was like haha cause it was like, the worse had happened and the best is yet to be. i think we really gave our best for second service. haha although matt almost tripped over my guitar cable causing my whole guitar to jerk downwards. haha but its okay lah. no harm done. and i forgot that matt was supposed to sing into my mic, and was quite stunned when i saw him so close to me haha. okay fine. i have to admit. it was SUPER fun. really what performing such stuff was about, having fun.

and i thought i lost my adapter till sherman just told me that yongle took it by accident.

okay i still cant get over that crack on my guitar.. and.. i think in a rush out to MCG yesterday after i prac abit of the song i slammed my hi-fi set abit too hard. now its spoilt too..

and my guitar!!! wwaaaahhhhh... worse part is i duno when it's hit or how it happened.

many many converts today.

Lord, more is to come! i have faith to see it coming. :D

okay fine i shant just leave this blog to rot. aiyah its just that i really have no mood to blog recently, as in after a long and stuff. i aint got time to update this page. well yeah, at least im doing it now.

basically this whole year has been so so so tiring. with the new time table and stuff our earliest day is 3pm if im not wrong. and we have PE like on monday and friday, 9am and 8am respectively. so after running those many many rounds, it just kills the whole day when u feel so sleepy and worn out.

school is being so long and just the same. i am like trying to know the j1s badly lah. but yeah time table doesnt allow. or maybe im just not trying hard enough.

lots of stuff have happened. like how i finally went to get my flying V hardcase bag which cost reasonably reasonable at 96 dollars. and how kaiwen and i tried to hail a cab for 1 hr in the rain in hopes of reaching CG early. but had to walk to cityhall mrt in the rain in the end after the hour and arrive late for CG. yeah wadeva.

oh yeah. and we did be performing as a band for the first part of the ex³ evangelistic service. haha so guys be down there this sat okay, 27 jan. okay just let me know if u wanna go lah. yeah.

and we kinda auditioned for ywam which went.. haha well.. hmm.

and my mom bought all these new cupboards, like 5 of them. and now they are like at random positions ard the house. and i returned to my room to find my guitars throw between my bed and my bros. and 2 of the cupboards are like in their original places instead. okay so now where's my guitars gonna go? plus my amp, pedal, bags, guitar stand and stuff gonna go? and i dont wanna place them near the window lah no way. sheesh.

and yet again i wanna say how tired i feel alr. seems like the day gets longer and longer all the time doesnt it?

oh yeah. i wonder if anyone even comes by here. well okay i promise will try my very best to update more lah. yup.

i must say im so proud of the church. we made a promise to God a few months back to break 1000 youths for Him by the end of year 2006. we kept our word.

now our strength is 1210 youths in Christ!!!

i guess there was lots of mixed emotions, like really seeing all your hardwork the whole year finally paying off. behind that numbers are so many precious souls.

and after december camp we had 318 converts for youth in total, thats about 20 a day.

God is so real lah seriously.

this is just the beginning i guess, 15 NE JC brothers by end feb 2007!!
